What started with SweetPacks 8 months ago from my son using the computer and being lured

What started with SweetPacks 8 months ago from my son using the computer and being lured by any and all free games that looked like ones he didn't own, has now turned into an both a learning experience and also a frustration. The main program appears to be named "apSuccess (1)" and all are hidden among four temp internet folders (atleast to my untrained eye).

I have used a good number of the programs from this site over the past 6 months and achieved results, but not total eradication. I have even downloaded McAfee via my smart phone 4G, to another laptop and placed it and other programs on a zip drive and installed them on the affected PC as well. I am getting ready to proceed with the steps "required" to post in this section but would first like to make one statement.

I CAN EDIT/VIEW EACH ITEM IN THESE FILE LOCATIONS INCLUDING THE ICON PICTURES ETC. IS IT OF ANY USE TO SHARE THIS TEXT ONLY PRIVATELY WITH SOMEONE WHO COULD HELP OTHERS? ps, none of the tools I've downloaded in the past or current view these files as a treat, based on my read of the programming code which I am far from literate, I would beg to differ, and it has my license num

Please bear with me, I was an EE student who didn't fair too well in CS. I also work 6 days a week 11.5 hours a day and have three kids full time,

MY QUESTION IS, KNOWING WHERE THESE FILES ARE ALREADY I FEEL COMPELLED TO DELETE THEM bc they are INVISIBLE TO REGEDIT!!!!!!

Can't get rid of Backdoor.Rbot.aveq MARK III have a Backdoor.Rbot.aveq though sometimes it's Backdoor.Rbot.awi
Vba32 keeps picking it up and deleting it, but I feel it's linked to the temp folder or something because everytime I try to install anything Vba32 tells me
"C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Temp\CR_04BFF.tmp\setup.exe" contains...

Another Google RedirectGoogle searches using google chrome get redirected. Running Norton 360 and XP Home. Tried a few other programs (Spybot, Malwarebytes, Vipre). Malwarebytes reported it fixed the problem once or twice but the redirect is still present. I'm too much of a newbie to fix it myself. Any help would be...

Odd Windows 7 Issues - Fail to execute files, menus disabled.A few days ago, my laptop randomly rebooted, and would not boot correctly, even in safe mode. I left it for the night, and tried it again the next morning; it booted as normal.
